From those pics it looks like there is about $2500 worth of damage. Some c*nt backed into the front of mine not long ago and took out 1 headlight and pushed the bumper slightly out of whack. It took a $1200 bill to fix it. I'm lucky insurance covered it. The headlight was $538 alone!

im on 3rd party fire and theft only. i have to foot the bill for this one. im gonna prob beat out the bonnet. i figured the damage was worth that much tho. it sucks major a**

riggaP, whered u get urs fixed? im trying to find some good smash repairers around. i dont know of any import specialists ones.

Sorry 2 say mate but the GTR bar doesn't fit on a GtsT without some major mods......GTR is wider than a Gtst therefore bar width has to be reduced.....

. . .

They say minor mods? but it can be done.. Jetspeed is useless at telling you exactly how they adapt it to fit, just that it don't fit straight on.

Dj_l3thal spoke to IQ Auto and they said it was an "easy" job to heat melt it into the right shape.

i was under the impression getting gts't GTR Front bars was quite easy? As in, quite a few places have them, and they are made to fit GTS'T's only?

Just wish there was a R34 GTR front bars for GT-T's!! :D

your looking at around $1500 to fix that + the price of a new front bar. u need by the looks of it a new re-enforcement bar, headlights(are they craked)? i did the same thing to my car not a Skyline rather a holden(hold the laughs) i got quoted between $1600 and $1100, but i went to a mates panel beatters in Ivanoh(spelling) got it done for $600 cash but i didnt replace the headlights , they where craked down the bottom.

i can give u the contact details of this panel better if u want. just PM

    • It's aftermarket. It also reeks of Honda Civic tryhard from 2003. But if you want one....then you want one.
    • Well some mostly good news and some slight bad news.  Good news is cylinder 6 did in fact only require a honing and I'm good to run my 86.5mm pistons again. I should also get the block back by end of week. Bad news, had a few surprises pop up. First, main and rod bearings were trashed. No sign of any heat damage. I knew right away what caused this... I had not packed my oil pump originally and spent a lot more time than I would have liked cranking the motor to get oil pressure. It sounded fine once started so I chucked it up to luck and forgot about it. Luckily rod and crank are fine and just need new bearings. Engine builder agreed that this was the cause.    Another surprise that carbon covered up very well that I didn't catch, something got sucked up and went through cylinder 1, 2 and 3. Luckily this was no cause for concern, just needed a bit of cleaning up. Valves look fine but he will vacuum test the head this week to confirm. I'm presuming this was something left over from welding my intercooler piping, but we'll never know. I'm going to thoroughly reclean everything.    So all in all, happy the motor is fine, and I'll get it back much sooner than expected. I'll also be taking the time to convert my WMI system over to direct port. I'll snap some pictures of that when the parts come in. 
    • I understand, thanks. Yeah I wouldn't want the car to tip over, I'll try and use the sills, I don't want to risk smashing the chassis rails. I ordered some rubber pucks that have a hopefully big enough slotting. If the front right gives me trouble I can always just make a wood block. I'll measure and inspect the sills closer once I actually take the car up. I hope so, but the rubber blocks I had in hand so far were pretty damn firm, if they are that hard they won't give much way. I'll let you know what happens. Angle grinding rubber isn't one of my favorite tasks. I'll probably start a build thread soon, for my own documentation and "log" as well as sharing what's going on with the car.
    • Kinda something I have been thinking about.  To be honest, we bought it already driving like that.  So there's no telling how long it actually has been driving like this.  Hopefully damage is too bad when we drop the pan.   I am having a hard time finding a site that sells the solenoid for the 5 speed auto, do you have any suggestions?
    • That'll be most likely down the road...  LOL
